On April 16, National Lineman Appreciation Day, Pedernales Electric Cooperative crews stopped by Cypress Springs Elementary School in Dripping Springs. First grade students got to meet with the PEC crews and learn about their safety gear and careers in linework. They also participated in an “egg drop”. Each student built a contraption at home to protect their egg. Then they got to test out their work and see if it survived the fall from a PEC bucket truck.
